Does the vet do pre-anesthetic blood work? I don't know them personally but if they have a good reputation it should be fine. It's natural to be nervous, I was a wreck when I took my first girl in. After the surgery they should give you pain meds and she will probably need a cone of shame. The area will be red and swollen but should look better over time and not worse. Any yellow or green discharge or excessive oozing of blood from the incision site would be the main things to look out for. She might not have an normal appetite for a day or to, this is normal, make sure she has plenty of water. Mostly just watch her, make sure she is comfortable and doesn't try and jump up too much. Chances are everything will be fine but don't be afraid to ask your vet lots of questions.
